'The beauty of his music seemed a triumph of instinct over spirit, a heart-rending cry, exuding all the weakness, contradictions, joy of human being -- a kind of desperate god-seeking which necessarily created it's own techniques.

Far from being that, this gig was however an awesome performance by three of the most controversial icons of the 60s cultural revolution.

Monk rarely played with so large a group, making this concert a rare historical event, and this album an important historical document in understanding this side of Monk's sound. All of the music heard on this double LP is original Monk material (some of which were written in the early Forties) including: 'We See', 'Epistrophy', 'Oska-T', 'Evidence', 'Blue Monk', and 'Epistrophy' --as well as the classic Monk ballad 'Ruby My Dear'."

"Jazz drummer Max Roach is one of the instrument's greatest masters. He revolutionized the way the drum is used, and his profound impact can still be felt in jazz today. A major voice in the bebop revolution, it is Roach's drumming that punctuated many of the genre-shaping recordings from the late forties and early fifties, including Miles Davis' historic
The Birth Of The Cool
. It was also around this same time that he and Charles Mingus started up their own label, Debut Records. These live recordings (from 1960-1961) come from a time in which Roach had become a vocal advocate of the Civil Rights movement, increasingly mixing music and politics, perhaps best illustrated on his classic 1960

"The high Priestess Of Soul pays tribute to the queen herself, Billie Holiday. Despite the decades that divide the two singers and the fact that Holiday was from the North (Philadelphia) and Simone was from the South (North Carolina), the two pioneering vocalists are united not by their music, but by the fact that both women put their musical careers on the line to sing about racism and the atrocities being committed against black Americans. Holiday's harrowing 'Strange Fruit' (included here) and Nina Simone's 'Mississippi Goddamn!' are parallel protest songs, although Lady Day was singing hers decades before the Civil Rights Movement. These eight amazing Billie Holiday classics, including 'Tell Me More & Then Some', 'This Year's Kisses' and 'Give Me A Pigfoot And A Bottle Of Beer' are given the full Nina Simone treatment -- a rare opportunity to enjoy two legends in one sitting."

He had spent the previous year teaching music and his autobiography

In 1972, he also re-signed with Columbia Records and his music was now performed frequently by ballet companies, including Alvin Ailey, who choreographed 'The Mingus Dances' during a 1972 collaboration with the Robert Joffrey Ballet Company. Mingus continued playing music and touring until 1977 when he was diagnosed with a rare nerve disease, Amyotropic Lateral Sclerosis. He died two years later, in 1979, at the age of 56.

"Charles Mingus was not only a bass virtuoso, but probably the greatest bass playing leader the world has ever known. Although strongly influenced by Duke Ellington in his early years, he was a true pioneer in jazz, and by the '50s, was at the avant-garde of the jazz world where he was soon playing alongside Charlie Parker, Bud Powell and Duke Ellington himself. By 1964, when this live album was recorded, Mingus was at his most creative and prolific, releasing over 30 albums over the course of the decade. Soon after the release of his sprawling masterpiece,
The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady
, called 'one of the greatest achievements in orchestration by any composer in jazz history,' Mingus put together one of his most influential ensembles, a sextet featuring Johnny Coles, Eric Dolphy, Clifford Jordan, Jaki Byard and Danny Richmond and undertook an extensive European tour. This tour, although marked by great live recordings such as this one in Stuttgart, was also unfortunately marred by tragedy as Coles fell ill and Dolphy died while in Berlin just two months later."

Classic traditionalists (beboppers included) were outraged by men in dashikis and sandals jumping on stage and just BLOWING their guts out creating screaming torrents of action. Most musicians involved with this crying anarchy could get no bookings beyond the New York loft set. The French lovers of the avant-garde embraced this African-American scene wholly. This recording is one of many in a series of LP's with consistent design. BYG released classic Free Jazz documents by Archie Shepp (at his wildest), Clifford Thornton, Art Ensemble of Chicago, Grachan Moncur III, Sunny Murray, Alan Silva, Arthur Jones, Dewey Redman and many others. A lot of these cats are present on this recording where from the first groove it sounds like an acoustic tidal wave exploding into shards of dynamite. " -- Thurston Moore, listed #1 on his

Bird and Person Dyning
project in the following way: I got this electronic bird in the mail, a Christmas tree ornament, and you simply plugged it in, and it made this birdcall... I had this idea to put binaural mikes in my ears and to head that bird and to move my head and pan the sound of the bird around in space. I had a mike in one ear and one in the other and I could make the stereo image by moving my head, so I started the birdcall and I put the amplifier on, and I started to get feedback and I discovered that these beautiful interference patterns were occurring between the sound to the birdcall and the strands of feedback. The flipside ('The Duke of New York') deals with the power of entertainers in our society and the hypothesis that their voices are present on different levels in our memory."

This is the best evidence of the band's crazy fusion: furious, mind-bending rhythms and melodies balanced with humor and the avant garde. Gatefold sleeve, 180 gram vinyl."

"Their fourth album (originally released in 1975 on Cramps) was a live recorded uncompromising blend of jazz-rock, ethnic folk, experimentation and political philosophies. The Area's unique sound combined the punch of rock and the frightening chaos of experimental music. The 'International POPular Group' was a fascinating band. This album contains one song from each of their previous records plus a 15-minute jam (the title song) and a free-jazz interpretation of 'L'Internazionale'. Original artwork.

"A glorious night, and I was 'born again' to the music of the 'Rebellation Generation'. Rick, Steve and Mayo, 'The Red Krayola' -- had come to Andrus Studio with a few of their friends, 50 friends to be exact, to record a FREE-FORM FREAK-OUT album. They brought with them their own form of music, -- a bell, buzzsaw, motor cycle, guitars, drums, organs, bottles, stockes, mouth bow, rocks, balloons, kazoos, flutes, piccolos, a hammer, jugs and just about every other item you can think of that makes noise, but then 'Beauty is in the eyes of the Beholder' -- and what is noise to one is Beautiful Music to another. I watched for two hours as a young man made his music by striking two match sticks together. He had apparently flashed -- and to him this was his beautiful music (his girl friend kept time by blowing in a pop bottle)." -- General Fox.

"The first LP is rock music only by association. Taking British folk as a point of departure, the music twists and oozes as a vile bunch of snakes, pairing gorgeous melodies and expert playing to ecstatically altered vocals and vicious lyrics. Rape, murder, witchcraft and abuse are main ingredients to the menu, which is cooked with raging madness, but still manages to taste delicately composed. One of the very first British folk albums that creates a totally new, dangerous and utterly unique atmosphere." -- Marcel Koopman. The second disc in this Get Back reissue is a 12" EP with 3 bonus tracks from their 1971 7" on Down Records featuring "Diana" (single version) and 2 non-album tracks. The classic weird-folk British album from 1970, more recently infamous for influence on Current 93's sound in the 90s. Pretty nicely done full color gatefold sleeve and reproduced insert.

"16 tracks recorded at London Wizard Studios, Hornsey, London (very late 1969 and early 1970). Remixed and remastered at Westwood Studios in Los Angeles in 1999. The words and music are by Twink." This is a series of recordings compiled from a winter's worth of unreleased sessions recorded in hashish blur. Twink's liner notes indicate that he never thought twice about them, but engineer Julian Briggs recently contacted him and reminded him of these events, and now extracts can be heard for the first time. The results are some of the most extreme & outside music that has been released in association with Mr. Twink's, looping noise jamdom and excess, plus some psychedelic foppery in a Tolkien-inspired mode. It's hard to believe Twink really "forgot" about this stuff considering the discography of junk he's remembered to reissue, and you might wonder if a bit more than mixing & mastering occurred in 1999. But either way, this is one of the guy's all time highlights in the universe of recorded sound, so make you you say "thanks" the next time you attempt to stick a flower in one of his ears.

"If any one group can legitimately qualify as the 'great lost psychedelic band', then Frumious Bandersnatch are that group. The few tantalizing glimpses of the combo afforded by their sole release from the 1960s have engendered an enormous reputation. The subsequent fortunes of its members in groups like Journey and the Steve Miller Band have only added to the phenomenon. Frumious Bandersnatch were amongst the second wave of the 1960s San Francisco rock renaissance, but they had no allegiance to folk or jazz or any of the other influences that shaped the major players such as the Dead or the Airplane. Instead the group came together in the culturally-arid environs of Contra Costa County in the East Bay, over the hill from politicized Berkeley and working-class Oakland, and a world away from cosmopolitan San Francisco itself."

"1971, the year this Peruvian band released their first LP, was one of turmoil for Peru. The country was three years into the rigid Velasco regime, whose left-wing policies were an attempt at a kind of Soviet-style communism that included the silencing of the media and an attempted ban on the import of rock music. Throughout the late '60s and early '70s rock concerts were often cancelled and the import of all 'Yankee' music was blocked. But no government policy could completely stop the tidal wave of American and British music flooding the market and bands like Black Sugar (originally called Los Far Fen, because they had a Farfisa organ and Fender amps) were all ears. Though devout children of the international rock scene, their first LP, released on the Peruvian label Sono Radio, definitely drips with the funky Peruvian rhythms heard on original tracks like the hit 'Viajecito' and 'Too Late.' Despite the desperate Peruvian economic situation, this album sold all over South America and was even re-released by an American label located in Miami.

is an above-average party album. Spanking falls short of the excellence of
One Nation Under a Groove
and
Uncle Jam Wants You
and didn't boast a major hit single, but amusing funk smokers like 'Electro-Cuties' and 'Funk Gets Stronger' aren't anything to sneeze at, nor is the reggae-influenced 'Shockwaves'.
Spanking
turned out to be the last album Clinton would produce under the name Funkadelic -- when he hit the charts again in 1983, Mr. P-Funk was billing himself as a 'solo artist'." Original artwork. 180 gram vinyl.

His exceptional vocal qualities join here for the first time Mitchell's knowledge of smooth soul rhythms, with the addition of a Hammond organ and an incredible brass section that defined Green's melodies as 'panty-ripping' for the sexually driven effects they laid upon generations.
